Public Works

MissionPublic Works crews carry out the goals and objectives set by Council and senior management in a safe and efficient manner. These functions can include: work crews engaged in the maintenance and repair of the County’s fleet; Summer and Winter Maintenance of the County’s paved and gravel road network including: sanding, snow plowing and removal; crack sealing, patching and minor paved road rehabilitation; gravel road grading, graveling, dust control and road re-conditioning; road signage and traffic control device(s) installation and maintenance; drainage and culvert maintenance. Due to the large geographic region of Lethbridge County and its heavy agricultural and intensive livestock operations, gravel road maintenance is one of the biggest challenges.
